Apple made headlines lately after unveiling the latest iOS 14 during its digital keynote, introducing a lineup of new features to the operating system.
New features include the ‘App Library’, which aims to cut clutter with app organization on the home screen. This allows iPhone users to find apps much more easily without endless swiping. Users can also choose how many pages of apps they wish to see on the home screen.
While the update might hugely benefit iPhone users, others pointed out that such a tool has long existed in Android phones.
The option is similar to home screen widgets which have been around in the Android system for close to a decade, and users have taken to Twitter to voice it out. “Lol iPhone welcome to 2012 Android,” a Twitter user joked.
“iPhone users flexing on something us Android users been flexing for years,” another user said.
However, other social media users commented that Steve Jobs had demonstrated something similar back in 2005, way before Android built it.

I know there's a lot of "Apple copied Android Widgets" comments running around but Apple widgets actually date back to dashboard on Mac.
